A little should also work. Leopard slugs that seem to gather around your back door may need a good dose of salt. Many pest controllers that bait externally for rats and mice find that leodard slugs are attracted to rodent bait. They will contaminate the bait, resulting in avoidance by the target rodents. mark, too much salt allowed into your gardens may not be the best option for growing plants. A little should also work.

Salt does instantly kill slugs and snails. However i decided to bury them in salt. Chalk dust keeps snails from crossing the line. I only tested this with snails and it worked. thanks again for the information. Mark I liked your article so much i put a few things to the test.
